Spending time with new grandson, David Joseph in ST Paul... Openness to family is what we are asked to do in our marriages... Preventing naturally when we feel that we need to, but then God is always in the picture and we are still "open". We love the wisdom of our amazing Church as it guides us in ways that are good for our marriages and good for our bodies! Welcoming the children that the Lord wants for us is wonderful, but also a big responsibility in being a "domestic Church".... To plant the seeds started at Baptism and nurturing them with the needed rain and sunshine that shared faith in our homes brings into these little ones... "Bring the little Children unto me." said our Lord. May you be like children... he said one other time! We can look at children and learn much in our spiritual walk. They keep us from focusing too much on ourselves as they look to us with trust on their journey through life. We need to give them much more than the material... siblings by far are more wonderful than having all the "things" . Nothing can replace our faith and our family! The Pat and Barb Verly family and their 5 children, in laws and grandkids along with many prayer warriors have been drawn together by John's cancer... sharing daily for 8 months started this blog- Family Soul Story - Our faith, family, farm and now our cancer journey called HEALING have colored and deepened our world. WE continue to share and depend on the support of our prayer warrior community, that has lowered us into the Lord's presence for His healing!

New life is a joyful gift and a lifelong responsibility
